The prices dont seem too bad, I would be wary of their "New" heads, more than likely chinese crap at those prices, Their maching is a little high compared to what I'm used to locally.

They wanted ready to go heads, rebuilt, for 175 a head. Seemed like a good price, too good perhaps?

My 1965 Tbird, 390 motor!

The dude that has my old heads wants 750-850 to redo them. yet I can get some from this place for 175 each, redone. I am asking them what they did to theirs and compare to what will be done to mine.

In my search for info on these, most folks say that is a good price, not a ton, not real cheap. They have done much bus on ebay and have a great rating there. They say they are redone, all new everything. They said they had bought out suppliers thru the years and collected a lot of cores along the way. I am getting a set from them.
yea these heads are heavy, you shoudl llife the intake. JEEESH!
